waim 0 Posted October 24, 2016 IP cameras are connected to PC where all videos are stored and where the necessary software is running. This PC is located behind multiple walls from TV. Only possible connection is Cat5 or WiFI. What options do I have to get the camera feeds to TV screen? Easiest would be change the HDMI input and change different cameras. Would it be possible to use raspberry pi for this? EDIT: cameras are Avigilon 8MP bullet cameras, PC runs on Win10 Pro, Access Control Manager 5 v5.8.0. Raspberry Pi3.

almelst 1 Posted October 25, 2016 If your TV has PC/VGA input, you can use VGA to Cat5 adapters. You can try cheap passive adapters or more expensive active one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bdawg2015 0 Posted October 25, 2016 One option is to install a multi port (output) video card into your PC. Something like NVIDIA NVS 510. Another option is is CAT5 video extenders. Are you looking to use the TV to see a single camera or as a multiviewer? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waim 0 Posted October 27, 2016 The point behind the idea using a Raspberry is that it's a fast switch between TV and secondary HDMI input, much faster then looking from the phone or tablet. My idea was to use Raspberry pi3 and rtsp. I can use the same Raspberry pi3 at work and rtsp works nice and all. At home I can't get a connection for some reason. I'm guessing right now that I have some network issue, but what I have no idea right now. If I'm opening the rtsp link with username and password, then it just does not connect. When I use the link without name and password, then I get login window, but after filling the name and password, it doesn't connect anyways. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
